Kainzo, quick question, if someone was a T2 and then the patch happened last weekend and now I can't switch between my T2 classes because none of the T1s are mastered. Yet I remember you guys saying T2s would stay T2s, but that doesn't seem to be the case if I can't switch between T2s. Is that intentional or something that can be fixed if I /pe it.

You did stay t2. You just can't become t2 again.
